[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Move to a red state OP

MD is not lowering taxes.

Nor is any red state as a matter of fact taxpayers in those states need to make up shortfalls for Trump's election deniers crazies, and Trump's visits you see don the con never paid his bills.

So you see OP you need a math class or just move to Russia you will be so much happier[/quote]

Oh just stop with this nonsense about moving to Russia or a Red State. My guess is a lot of people pissed at MCPS, including me, are liberal democrats. The school system is like the titanic right now. We have a right to demand change. A lot of us have had it with the mediocrity and mismanagement. [/quote]
I think sometimes people try to give that impression because it suits their political aims, but when I look at the actual facts and my personal experiences with having gone to MCPS 30+ years ago and having two kids in it today that any student who is interested can get a fine education. That things aren't as dire as some would have you believe. Nevertheless, the county's demographics are very different today than when I was a kid and the school dealing with a different set of issues that stem from that.[/quote]

Don't you think these 'issues' change the learning environment?  I have had kids in MCPS for over a decade, and I very much see a difference from my oldest to my youngest.

What 'facts' are you looking at?  Are you going by grades, because there is definitely grade inflation.  Or test scores, because test scores certainly show an across the board decline.

But, if you have other 'facts' that show MCPS is a stellar school district, I'm willing to hear them (and would love to hear them!).  [/quote]
